Hello, I am a newbie of boost and I want to use it. I would like to serialize a list. The list is defined with the following data type:
typedef struct person { char *name; char *first_name; struct person *next; } person;
person *list_person;
I'd suggest reorganizing your struct into struct person { std::string first_name; } and useing std::list<person> list. Then serializing and > other operations would probably be trivial. Shalom
Another option would be an intrusive list -- http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_52_0/doc/html/intrusive.html . The serialization library in Boost doesn't provide support for intrusive containers, but the C++ Middleware Writer -- http://webEbenezer.net has support for intrusive list and rbtree. If you use std::list, the C++ Middleware Writer has some advantages -- http://webEbenezer.net/comparison.html over the serialization library in Boost. (There are serialization and deserialization tests with std::list there.) -- Brian Ebenezer Enterprises -- so far G-d has helped us. http://webEbenezer.net (651) 251-9384
